31st annual ArtParty

The Anton Art Center has a mission to enrich and inspire people of all ages through the arts, and a vision to create an open community around creative expression. With 300 attendees in 2021, ArtParty continues to be a draw for Anton Art Center supporters, community and civic leaders. Please join our celebration of the arts through sponsorship of ArtParty 2022!

Each year in September (September 22, 2022), the Anton Art Center hosts a spectacular party featuring a “taste of Macomb County” which showcases area restaurants and caterers gathered under pavilions just outside our doors. ArtParty guests stroll the venue sampling appetizers, desserts, refreshments and more, while enjoying music as they mingle and dance the night away. Our galleries and Art Market remain open during the event for guests to view current exhibitions and get a look inside our historic building. This year’s ArtParty will feature live entertainment, 50/50 raffle, live art demonstrations and interactive activities, and plenty of opportunities to celebrate the impact of the arts in Macomb County.

The Art Center is a strong advocate for artists, and artist opportunities include exhibitions ranging from juried statewide competitions to invitational and student shows. The Anton also presents the annual Holiday Market, which is a significant opportunity for local artists to earn income. Our Art Market offers Michigan artists further opportunities to generate income throughout the year, and we offer a regular schedule of art classes in a variety of media for all ages. Outreach programs with local community centers, libraries, and area fairs and festivals help us to share the arts beyond our own walls, and enrich and inspire people both near and far.

Our significant partnerships with local artists and regional performing arts organizations help us to bring high-quality performing arts to our area as well, such as our upcoming series of opera programs with the Detroit Opera House, and participatory jam sessions with local musician Hamisi Lee and partners Ardis Music and TCB Youth Mentoring.

This year we are focusing special attention on new forms of entertainment and expanded art demonstrations, including new participatory activities for guests. These reimagined activities will bring a new level of interest and engagement, and highlight the contributions that art can have on inclusivity, education, health, economic development, and everyday life!
